New Render for Thon

April has been heavily devoted to bringing the Highborn up to speed with the other factions. This month will see the release of their beta materials, the Build Force Tool – Highborn options as well as the rest of the Highborn models finishing up. First up is their matriarch, Ela.

The Kickstarter had funded, but then backers were backing out very quickly. It didn’t look like it was going to make it after all, so it was cancelled. As-such, the company has continued on their own at a much-reduced pace from what was expected from a Kickstarter project, basically putting out previews when they can rather than right after another.

Polar Bear is right – I cancelled the KS – there wasn’t enough to cover all of the plastic tooling (200K), so I switched to metal to do it here in the states for less. Things have been moving forward every day and I am looking to have Faction Starters available in the coming months.

We have a newsletter signup on the site for all the latest, as well as a beta and force builder (BFT) – check it out. http://www.thonthegame.com (hope that its ok that I post PB)
